Sharing my thoughts and process when creating web sites and apps. My goal is to promote some "best practices" that will help you make better websites with less frustration (as well as dispel a few myths).
7. Think About Why Before How
“If you don’t know where you are
going, any road will get you there.”
—Lewis Carroll
• Identify your target audience
• Identify with your target audience
8. User Centric?
• Good design is the baseline
• Great design is a feature
• Customer’s goals... not your goals
• Users probably don’t work for your company
10. What Does The User Expect?
• Consistency is great!
• Cohesiveness is what you really need.
• If you don’t fancy yourself a design expert... there is no
shame in striving for obvious.
• You don’t have to be *that* clever
11. Design Patterns
“The only ‘intuitive’ interface is the nipple.
After that it’s all learned.”
—Bruce Ediger
